Court documents said 55-year-old Scott Quisenberry was taken to jail Saturday morning, charged with three counts of rape.

Quisenberry most recently taught at Kerrick Elementary School in Louisville, and before that, he spent several years in Bullitt County.

He taught at Bullitt Lick Middle School between 2005 and 2011. In 2010, he came under the microscope.

"Some of the staff at Bullitt Lick Middle School did bring to the attention of the central office their concerns about a relationship between him and a young lady who had been a former student," said Bullitt County Public Schools attorney Eric Farris.

It isn't clear if that case is the same one that has him under scrutiny now.

An investigation at the time revealed nothing, but this time in the district seems more serious about the allegatons.

"He had previously been given notice that his contract would be terminated by September if he didn't secure necessary certification required for him to teach the course he was hired to teach," said Farris.

Then, in his personnel file, it said he was also under a corrective action plan at the time related to classroom instruction.

Rape, second-degree and rape, third-degree are the charges against Quisenberry.

Rape, second-degree has to do with a person accused of sexual intercourse with a person under 14 years old. It is a Class C felony and carries a penalty of 5-10 years in prison.

Rape, third-degree deals with an offender who is in a position of trust accused of having sexual intercourse with a minor under 18 years old. It is a Class D felony calling for a sentence of 1-5 years in prison.
